MAN!!

64 or 65 bn? Few dark spots on the obverse but I see no problems other than that at all.

I'll take it!

Original, problem free. MS64 Brown, shot Red-Brown.

That is what I like in a 2 cent piece. I don't like red ones. I do like good strikes. I don't like obvious bag marks. Can't tell about the luster so I can't guess the grade except to say it looks at least choice unc.

I just started studying these 2-Cent pieces a few months ago and bought my first one around the same time. Mine is a NGC MS64RB. Comparing yours to what I have in front of me I would guess yours a MS64BN, a little to dark for RB. Maybe a shot a 65.

It is a very nice looking coin! I like it - looks nice and original.

I don't like my copper red either Carl.

Nice looking coin.......and it happens to be my "current" series!

Looks 65BN. I collect them so I've got somewhat of an eye for them.

Not missing a thing!

That 2 cent makes me think about collecting 2 cents.

Very nice!!! 64BN maybe a shot at 65 and maybe even a shot at RB depending on how it looks in hand (how is that for hedging my guess???

)

thoughts from the day shift?

Very nice one. I'd WAG about a 64BN -- not quite enough red for RB, at least not what I see in the image.

ad4400 · August 9, 2008 1:16PM

This showed up today and I'm every bit as pleased as I expected to be. I tried taking my own pics but I can't do any better than the seller's images. For those that ventured a guess at the grade its NCG 64BN.

That's what I was going to say!!

The first one of these I bought raw, had been dipped in that "Care" solution and has really neat coloring. Unfortunately, BB'd when I sent it in.
Still an attractive uncirc. The next one I bought is MS64 BN, NGC, and looks a lot like this one (only darker). I think it's a great design, and what's not to like about a 2-cent coin?

PrivateCoinCollector · August 9, 2008 1:30PM

I won't grade it beyond saying it is Unc. But it looks to be all original. Nice coin.

Artist · August 9, 2008 1:46PM

I like it!

Little spot at 8 O'Clock on the obverse that might bother some, but not me.

For all the reasons Geoman gave, I say 64BN.

gorgeous and looks real original, love the rb elements but I'm thinking bn. simply beautiful surfaces so who cares!!?
